My Sad Captains chords by Elbow

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard

Intro: G+G (for a few bars) then G+G (2 bars), Em, C, (1 bar each) then back to G. I think it's in simple 4/4 if that helps anyone.

G+G
I'm running out of miracles
E minorEm   C majorC     G+G
  Oh my soul
G+G
And the streets are lined with one-man shows
E minorEm   C majorC     G+G
  Oh my soul
G+G
Corner boys were moved along
E minorEm   C majorC     G+G
  Oh my soul
G+G
We're plummeting like crippled crows
E minorEm   C majorC     G+G
  Oh my soul

G+G      E minorEm
 Oh, long before
C majorC       G+G
You and I were born
G+G                  E minorEm
Others beat these benches with their empty cups
    C majorC
To the night and its stars
    G+G
To be here, and now, and who we are

C majorC            G+G
Another sunrise with my sad captains
C majorC              G+G
With who I choose to lose my mind
C majorC                 G+G
And if it's so we only pass this way but once
     C majorC        G+G
What a perfect waste of time

The BMX apothecary

 Oh my soul
G+G
For each and every train we missed
